TITLE
COLORS CYAN YELLOW BLACK YELLOW RED
ADVENTURE IN HUMONGOUS CAVE
Based on "public domain" games by Will Crowther,
Don Woods, David Platt and David Malmberg
This version adapted for the Adventure Game Toolkit and
(c) 1990 by David Malmberg
END_TITLE
INSTRUCTIONS
During your adventure in the cave, I will be your eyes and hands. I know of
places, actions, and things. Most of my vocabulary describes places and is
used to move you there. To move, try words like FOREST, BUILDING, STREAMBED,
ENTER, EAST, NORTHWEST, NORTH, SOUTH, UP or DOWN. I know about a few special
objects, like a black rod hidden in the cave. These objects can be
manipulated using some of the various action words I know. The objects may
have side effects; for instance, the rod scares the bird. Usually adventurers
having trouble moving just need to try a few more words. Usually people
trying unsuccessfully to manipulate an object are attempting something beyond
their (or my!) capabilities and should try a completely different tack. To
speed the game you can sometimes move long distances with a single word. For
example, "BUILDING" usually gets you to the building from anywhere above
ground except when lost in the forest. Also, note that cave passages turn a
lot, and that leaving a room to the NORTH does not guarantee entering the next
from the SOUTH.
Your commands should generally be in the format:
<verb> <(multiple) noun phrase(s)> <preposition> <noun phrase/object>
Some (hypothetical) examples of valid commands:
PLACE A RED ROCK IN THE SMALL BOWL
PUT THE GREEN ROCK AND THE SMALL PEBBLE BEHIND THE OAK TREE
READ MY POETRY BOOK
SWIM IN THE SWIMMING POOL
EXAMINE THE GOLD RING, THE DWARF AND THE SILVER NECKLACE
EAT THE CELERY, THE TUNA, THE APPLE AND THE ONION
THROW THE BATTLE AXE AND THE LARGE ROCK AT THE WEREWOLF
SHOOT THE BURGLAR WITH THE REVOLVER
ATTACK HIM
("HIM" will refer to last noun mentioned, e.g., the burglar)
FIRE THE LASER PISTOL AT THE ALIEN MUTANT
GET THE BOOK (also: TAKE THE BOOK)
READ IT
("IT" will refer to last noun mentioned, e.g., the book)
GET ALL (will get everything movable at the current location)
GET THE KEYS, BOTTLE, FOOD AND THE CLOAK
EXAMINE THE KEYS, BOTTLE, FOOD AND CLOAK
PUSH THE RED BUTTON AND THE GREEN BUTTON
UNLOCK THE FILE CABINET WITH THE STEEL KEY
JUMP THROUGH THE OPENING
JUMP OVER THE LOG
NORTH
SOUTHWEST
PLACE AN AXE AND THE SHIELD NEXT TO THE BIG TREE
PUT THE FOOD ON THE KITCHEN TABLE
TURN ON THE FLASHLIGHT
LIGHT THE TORCH WITH THE WOODEN MATCHES
SCREAM AT THE UGLY TROLL
CLIMB UP THE LADDER
EXTINGUISH THE FIRE (or PUT OUT THE FIRE)
DRINK THE WHITE WINE
THROW THE FIRE WOOD IN THE STOVE
PULL THE BELL CORD
WEAR THE STUPID HAT (also: PUT ON THE STUPID HAT)
TAKE OFF THE HAT (also: REMOVE THE HAT)
NE (for NORTHEAST)
DROP THE KEY AND THE BOTTLE
ENTER THE CAVE
XYZZY (i.e., a "magic" word)
TURN THE DOORKNOB
PLAY WITH THE DOG
TALK TO (or TALK WITH) THE OLD MAN (ABOUT THE WEATHER)
TELL JEFF ABOUT THE SWORD
ASK JODIE ABOUT THE CRIME
Compound commands can be created by connecting single commands (like
those above) with "AND", "THEN" or the punctuation symbols "," or ";" to
connect two or more separate commands. However, "end-of-sentence"
punctuation symbols like ".", "!" and "?" should not be used. Below are
a few examples of valid compound commands:
TURN THE DOORKNOB THEN ENTER THE CAVE
CLIMB DOWN THE LADDER THEN SOUTH, WEST AND NORTHWEST
GET THE CLOAK AND THEN EXAMINE IT; READ THE LABEL
DROP THE FOOD AND THE BOTTLE THEN UNLOCK THE DOOR AND THEN LEAVE
GET THE TORCH, LIGHT IT WITH THE WOODEN MATCHES THEN EXAMINE IT
If the game understands all of the words in your command, but still
seems confused by the command -- then try to say the same thing using
fewer words and a simpler sentence. When in doubt, simplify your
input commands as much as possible. This also saves typing effort.
SPECIAL COMMANDS:
The game uses a number of special commands for various "housekeeping"
chores. These are all pretty standard for most adventure games,
specifically:
HELP May (or may not) give you a hint.
SCORE Will summarize your progress, so far.
INVENTORY Will display a list of the items you are carrying, and
those items you are wearing.
BRIEF Will cause location descriptions to be brief.
VERBOSE Will cause location descriptions to be verbose.
LOOK Will give you a full (verbose) description of
your current location.
LIST EXITS Will list the obvious (visible) exits from your current
location. There may be other ways to exit the location
-- but they may not be obvious.
OOPS Will allow you to edit (using the cursor keys, and the
delete, insert and backspace keys) your previous
input command. For example, if you enter THORW ROPE by
mistake, OOPS will enable you to edit this command and
correct it to THROW ROPE.
SAVE GAME Will save the current game status on disk.
RESTORE GAME Will restore a previously saved game from disk.
SCRIPT Causes output to go to both the screen and a printer
(using the LP1 port).
UNSCRIPT Causes output to go to the screen (only).
SOUND ON/OFF SOUND OFF turns the sound off and SOUND ON turns it on.
VIEW Will allow you to view the various illustrations (if
any) available at any location. For example, VIEW
SCENE will show a picture of the current location,
VIEW OGRE will show a picture to the ogre, etc.
QUIT Quits the current game session. Always exit using QUIT
-- so the game can erase some temporary data files and
save disk space!
FUNCTION AND ALT-CURSOR KEYS:
The combination of the ALT key and the cursor keys have all been
programmed to create an input command corresponding to their respective
movement or compass directions, i.e., the ALT key and the up-arrow key
causes a NORTH command to be generated, the ALT key and the home key
causes a NORTHWEST command to be generated, etc.
Similarly, the function keys have been predefined to stand for several
of the most frequently used commands. Further, by giving the command
DEFINE, you may re-define any of the function keys to give any command
you wish. For example, in this game you might find it useful to
re-define one of the function keys to give the command KILL ORC WITH AXE
or GIVE CANDY TO BABY.
Hitting the '?' key (during the game) will display a diagram of keys and
their current definitions.
"POP-UP" HINTS:
This game also has a "pop-up" hint system. Any time you are stuck and
need a hint, hit the <Alt> key and the <h> key together and a
menu-driven system of hints for the game will pop-up for you to use.
Hitting the ESC key will return you to the game when you are done with
the hints.
"LOOK-AND-FEEL" OPTIONS:
This particular game is using a special version of the AGT (Adventure
Game Toolkit) called the "Master's Edition" which allows the user to
customize the manner in which the game's general interface is defined
and to specify the game's overall "look-and-feel." The user may define
color schemes, status line options, command input method, size and
"layout" of the screen, etc. Once the player has a set of
"look-and-feel" options he or she likes, these options may be saved as
the standard defaults for this game and any other AGT game the user
plays.
One of the options available is a unique "menu-driven" input option that
allows the player to enter game commands by selecting words from a menu.
This option is particularly helpful for players who are often frustrated
by their inability to figure out an adventure game's vocabulary -- since
the menu always displays a list of "feasible" (though not always "smart"
or even appropriate) commands from which the player may make a
selection.
The "look-and-feel" options are accessed by hitting the ESC key during
the game (i.e., not now).
SPECIAL CHALLENGE:
When first released, this game offered a special $100 prize to the first
person to discover 10 "secret words" that were hidden throughout this
adventure!!! Sorry, but the prize has already been won.
But as a special challenge, the secret words have been left in the game. Try
to find them!!!

INTRODUCTION
Somewhere nearby is Humongous Cave, where others have found fortunes in
treasure and gold, though it is rumored that some who enter are never seen
again. The object of the game is for you to explore the cave and return
(safely) with as much treasure as possible. The cave is a mysterious and
magical place. You will face many puzzling and perilous challenges as you
explore.

un-declared income. We wish to warn you that we are watching you closely as
you play this game, and all of this income must be properly and totally

MESSAGE [CAMEO 2]
From somewhere nearby, there suddenly comes a sound of something mechanical in
motion. As you turn toward it, an incredible figure rolls into the light of
your lamp. It stands about five feet high on a wheeled metal pedestal, and
has a globular light- filled head, accordion-pleated metal arms, and a
cylindrical body the size of an oil drum with a plastic panel on the front.
It rolls past without taking any notice of you, all the while waving its arms,
flashing a light behind its front panel and bellowing "WARNING! WARNING!
DANGER!" at the top of its not inconsiderable voice. It rolls on out of

your head several times, squeaks with disgust, and flutters on out of sight.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE [CAMEO 4]
Suddenly, the ground quivers underfoot; a dull rumbling sound resounds from
the rock around you, and in the distance you can hear the crash of falling
rock. The earth tremor subsides after a few seconds without causing any major
damage.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE [CAMEO 5]
From the darkness nearby comes the sound of shuffling feet. As you turn
toward the sound, a nine-foot cyclops ambles into the light of your lamp.
The cyclops is dressed in a three-piece suit of worsted wool, and is wearing a
black silk top-hat and cowboy boots and is carrying an ebony walking-stick.
It catches sight of you and stops, seeming frozen in its tracks, with its
bloodshot eye bulging in amazement and its fang-filled jaw drooping with
shock. After staring at you in incredulous disbelief for a few moments, it
reaches into the pocket of its vest and pulls out a small plastic bag filled
with a leafy green substance, and examines it carefully. "It must be worth
eighty pazools an ounce after all" mumbles the cyclops, who casts one final
look at you, shudders, and staggers away out of sight.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE [CAMEO 6]
From somewhere in the distance comes a heart-wrenching scream of mortal
terror! "NO! DON'T! NO! NO! HELP!!!!" cries the voice, and then lets out
a wail of agony that is cut off abruptly. Subdued crunching and slurping
sounds can be heard for a minute or so, and then silence falls.

MESSAGE [CAMEO 7]
From somewhere nearby come the sounds of sliding, stumbling feet. As you turn
toward them, the beam of your lamp falls upon a tall, shambling figure
approaching you out of the darkness. Standing no more than five feet tall, it
cannot possibly weigh more than fifty pounds including the shroud and bandages
in which it is wrapped; a musty reek like the scent of old, dead earth seeps
from it and fills the air. As you cower back in disgust and horror, the
figure halts, examines you through eyes resembling wet pebbles, and whispers
"Peace, man!" in a voice like wind rustling through dead trees. It then turns
and shambles away into the darkness.

MESSAGE [CAVE.DESTROYED]
The ground begins to shudder ominously, and the very cave walls around you
begin to creak and groan! A sulphurious stench fills the air!
With an incredible lurch, the ground begins to dance and ripple as though it
were liquid! You are thrown off of your feet and tossed violently up and
down! The cave walls begin to crumble and split from the stress!
There is a terrible ROAR of rending rock!! The cave ceiling splits, and rocks
plunge down and smash your lower body to a gooey paste!!
There is a violent blast in the distance! Steam and smoke drift into view
through the rents in the walls, and furiously-bubbling red-hot lava flows in
and surrounds you. The cave ceiling disintegrates in an incredible orgy of
grinding destruction, and the cave walls fall and are pounded into fine dust.
You are lying, badly mangled, on a small rock island in a sea of molten lava.
Above you, the sky is faintly visible through a thick pall of smoke and steam.
A short distance to the north, the remains of a well-house are sinking slowly
into the bubbling ooze.
There is a distant, sourceless screech of incredible anguish! With a sharp
>poof< and a small puff of orange smoke, a bent and bearded elf appears. He
is dressed in working clothes, and has a name-tag marked "Ralph" on his shirt.
"You blithering idiot!" he storms. "You were warned quite clearly not to use
the word 'phuggg' near water!! I hadn't gotten all of the bugs out of it yet,
and now your incredible incompetence has totally destroyed Humongous Cave!!
Do you have the faintest scintilla of an iota of an understanding of how much
work I'm going to have to do to get the cave rebuilt?!? I'll have to go all
the way to Peking for another dragon, and I'll have to convince the Goblin's
Union to send me another team of gooseberry goblins; I'll have to sub-contract
the building of the volcano out to the local totrugs, and worst of all I'll
have to go through eight months of paperwork and red tape to file a new
Environmental Impact statement!! All because you couldn't follow directions,
you purblind and meatbrained moron! I'm rescinding all of your game points
and throwing you out! Out! OUT! GET OUT! @#$&'@!!!"

in the pentagram. He pushes experimentally at the magical wall of the
pentagram (which holds), and nods politely to you. "MY THANKS, OH MORTAL," he
says in an incredibly deep bass voice. "IT HAS BEEN THREE THOUSAND YEARS
SINCE SOLOMON SEALED ME INTO THAT BOTTLE, AND I AM GRATEFUL THAT YOU HAVE
RELEASED ME. IF YOU WILL OPEN THIS PENTAGRAM AND LET ME GO FREE, I WILL GIVE
YOU SOME ADVICE THAT YOU MAY ONE DAY WISH TO POSSESS."

MESSAGE [RUDE.DJINN]
The flask's wax seal crumbles at your touch. A large cloud of black smoke
pours out, solidifying into the form of a twelve-foot Djinn. "AT LAST!" he
says in an earth-shaking voice, "I KNEW THAT SOMEDAY SOMEONE WOULD RELEASE ME!
I WOULD REWARD YOU FOR THIS, MORTAL, BUT IT HAS BEEN THREE THOUSAND YEARS
SINCE I HAD A SOLID MEAL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO STAND HERE CHATTERING WHEN I
COULD BE EXIT EATING A SIX-INCH SIRLOIN STEAK. FAREWELL." With that, he
somewhat rudely explodes back into smoke and drifts quickly out of sight.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE [DJINN.ADVICE]
The pentagram's magical barrier sparks fitfully and goes down. The Djinn
stretches gratefully and smiles at you. "AGAIN, MY THANKS," he says. "MY
ADVICE TO YOU WILL TAKE THE FORM OF A HISTORY LESSON. WHEN RALPH WITT, THE
ARCHITECT AND CONSTRUCTOR OF THIS CAVE, WAS VERY YOUNG, HE BECAME VERY
INCENSED THAT HIS NAME WAS AT THE END OF THE ALPHABET. HE FELT (FOR SOME
REASON) THAT THE LETTER W BELONGED NEAR THE BEGINNING OF THE ALPHABET, AND
THAT ALL OF THOSE "UPSTART LETTERS WHICH UNFAIRLY USURPED THE BEST ROOMS"
SHOULD BE FORCED INTO EXILE AT THE END OF THE ALPHABET. HIS INSTINCT FOR
MATTERS MAGICAL AND MYSTICAL LED HIM TO APPLY THIS STRANGE BELIEF INTO THE
CAVE'S STRUCTURE WHEN HE EXCAVATED IT. YOU HAVEN'T YET BEEN AFFECTED BY HIS
STRANGE HABITS, BUT YOU SHOULD REMEMBER THIS. FAREWELL, AND GOOD LUCK." With
that, the Djinn evaporates into a cloud of smoke and drifts rapidly away.

The earth begins to shudder violently, and smoke flows up from the gorge
beneath your feet. With a violent >glop<, the volcano belches out an immense
blast of molten lava which flies into the air above the gorge and suddenly
solidifies into a fragile-looking arch of wheat-colored stone that bridges the
gorge.

The earth shudders violently, and steam blasts upwards from the geyser. The
wheat-stone bridge cracks and splits, and the fragments fall into the gorge.

#COMMENT
Player must wave rod while at "coral passage" or "bend in coral passage" to
get quicksand to harden. If quicksand is not hard, then trying to pass
between these two locations will cause player to disappear into quicksand and
die.
After waving rod, quicksand will remain hard for only 5 turns, so player will
need to move across it quickly.
If the player is carrying either the giant clam or the giant oyster, he will
sink in the quicksand -- regardless of whether it is hard or not.

success; it strikes him full on the chest. There is a brilliant flash of
light, a deafening roar and a cloud of oily gray smoke; when the smoke clears
(and your eyes begin working properly again) you see that the ogre has
vanished. The sword is lying on the ground, sparking and flaming. Before
your eyes it softens and melts, writhes as if in pain, and shrinks rapidly
until all that is left is a small silvery ring which cools rapidly.

#COMMENT -- RING
MESSAGE [1st Bell Ring]
A few moments after you ring the bell, you hear a voice cry out, "Hold your
horses, I'm coming........damn tourists..." A little old man in a red velvet
suit appears on the other side of the gates. He produces a key from a pocket
of his coat and unlocks the gate.
"Welcome to the 12592nd level of Hell. My name is Fred and I will be your
guide for today's tour", he says.
"This level of Hell is reserved for Adventure game writers. Here, we
specialize in giving these cruel people some of the same kind of torment that
they gave to those unfortunates that played their fiendish creations. It
doesn't matter that the game players played willingly -- in their quest for
masochistic pleasures. No! No! No! Just because the victim is foolish
enough to think he or she is enjoying the experience, doesn't make the crime
any less heinous. These wicked Adventure game writers were no better than
drug pushers preying on the mental weaknesses of Adventure junkies."
"Remember, as you tour this level of Hell that these people deserve their
eternal torment! They are just being repaid for the misery they have give to
others. Do not pity them. Save you pity for their unfortunate victims!"
With that introduction finished, Fred begins the tour. You follow him down a
long winding path. You finally stop by the edge of a cliff. In the distance
below you is a dark labyrinth of high thorny hedges. In the middle of the
labyrinth, you can see two figures groping along the hedge walls. As they
reach out to touch the hedges, they recoil in pain from touching the thorns.
Fred chuckles. "Those guys are Will Crowther and Don Woods. They started it
all by writing the first Adventure game -- called simply ADVENTURE. They are
now doomed to search in the dark through a maze of twisty little passages.
They are trying to find the vending machine to buy some batteries for their
lantern. They will search forever -- in vain. A fitting punishment, don't
you agree?"
Fred chuckles again and wanders down the path to the north. After a few
minutes you arrive at a pleasant sunny meadow. Off to the south at the edge
of the meadow is a swampy area. In the middle of the swamp, buried in the mud
is a very strange sight. A bearded man is trapped under a sleeping dragon.
He alternates between trying to wake the dragon and trying to dig himself free
in the mud. He continues to struggle, but to no avail.
Fred explains, "That is Scott Adams. He wrote ADVENTURELAND, PIRATE ADVENTURE
and many, many others. His Adventure games were the first written for
microcomputers. Now, he is getting a taste of his own medicine."
"Let's move on." Fred proceeds to walk to the east. The ground rises gently
until you find yourself overlooking a deep chasm. On one side of the chasm
you see a man. Directly across from him is a woman. Both are shouting secret
words with very hoarse voices. They continue to shout out every silly word
imaginable. There doesn't seem to be any result from their efforts except
their voices get hoarser.
"Ken and Roberta Williams. They wrote THE WIZARD AND THE PRINCESS, and KING'S
QUEST I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, etc." explains Fred. "After they
discover the correct secret word, Artichoke, they will get to ride in a leaky
boat with no way to fix the leak." He chuckles again.
You follow Fred as he continues on the path to the south. You finally come to
an old house and enter through a broken window. Fred lifts a rug, brush aside
some leaves and you both peek into a dark room through a small grate. Below,
you see two men trapped in a brick-walled room. There are no doors or windows
in the room. The only exit is the grate and it is locked on the outside.
However, even if the grate was unlocked it would do no good, as both men are
too big to fit through the grate.
"The only way out of the room is by saying the word 'Ahriman'. Ahriman was
one of the gods of Zoroastrian mythology", Fred whispers. "After they figure
that one out, we have some really hard puzzles for them. They are Dave
Lebling and Marc Blank. They wrote the ZORK series. You know those, of
course, -- ZORK I, ZORK II, ZORK III, ZORK ZERO, BEYOND ZORK, INSIDE ZORK,
OUTSIDE ZORK, UNDER ZORK, SON OF ZORK, RETURN TO ZORK, BRIDE OF ZORK, 2ND
COUSIN OF ZORK, ZORK MINUS 47, IN SEARCH OF ZORK, ZORK'S REVENGE, ZORK -- THE
SEQUEL, THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO ZORK, NIGHT OF THE LIVING ZORK, THE
ESSENTIAL ZORK, THE NON-ESSENTIAL ZORK, ZORK TRIVIA, ZORK CONFIDENTIAL, THE
VALLEY OF ZORK, IT CAME FROM ZORK, TALES OF ZORK, THE CREATURE FROM ZORK, ZORK
UNCHAINED, ZORK OBSERVED, THE COMPLEAT ZORK, et al. For all the pain they have
caused Adventure game players, these two deserve some really terrible
punishment, but there are some things that are even too nasty and gross for
Hell."
Fred puts the leaves back over the grate, puts the rug over the leaves, and
then leads you outside the house. You continue the tour for the remainder of
the afternoon. Finally, exhausted, you return to the entrance gate.
"Well, I hope you have enjoyed the tour of level 12592 of Hell. And remember,
those fiends deserve their fate or worse. Don't pity them. Instead, pity
their victims -- those poor misguided Adventure game players who can't kick
their evil habits!", Fred concludes.
He shakes your hand, says good bye, opens the gate for you to leave and then
locks it behind you. You find yourself back outside the gate to Hell. Fred
disappears down the path on the other side.

MESSAGE [The toad turns into an ugly dwarf princess]
You must really have a sick mind! But -- your wish is my COMMAND and must be
obeyed -- no matter how bizarre. Ok ... here goes ... You pick up the toad.
Grasping it firmly, you give it a tender little kiss on the top of the head.
Suddenly, the earth starts to tremble and the toad begins to glow with a
bright red light. You are blinded by the light and cover your eyes with your
arm. After a while the earth stops trembling and you remove your arm from
your eyes.
It's -- it's -- it's turning into a dwarf princess!
She -- she -- she's -- she's -- UGLY! -- VERY UGLY!!!!!!
She's 3'6" tall, and 180 lbs., with black, oily, snarly hair, and three large
warts on her nose, which separates two beady red eyes that don't track. She
immediately starts to say, in a high-pitched nasal whine, "Trying to pick me
up, eh sweetie? Where do you think you get off? I'm a decent broad, and
won't have any of this. Whatcha doing around here? You one of those weird
explorers who rip off decent folks, taking their treasures out of the cave?
I hope you haven't found the magic wand yet . . . "
A cloud of white smoke and a wizard appear. He is garbed in green and violet
robes, and says "I really must apologize about this. She has no business in
this game; she escaped from another game in the next town. To compensate you
for this inconvenience, let me add ten points to your score. Sorry again."
With that, he takes her hand, and they start to vanish. As they fade out of
sight, you note that she has taken his hat, and is beating him severely about
the ears with it.

COMMANDMENT #12592
Oh ye who write Adventure Games that torment the player with stupid puzzles:
Dost thou know the magnitude of thy sin before the gods? Yea, verily, thou
shalt be ground between two stones. Shall the angry gods cast thy body into
the whirlpool? Surely, thy eye shall be put out with a sharp stick! Even
unto the ends of the earth shalt thou wander and unto the land of the dead
shalt thou be sent at last. Surely thou shalt repent of thy low cunning.

MESSAGE [AGT Info]
This game was created using the "Master's Edition" of the Adventure Game
Toolkit (AGT). The "Master's Edition" is the long-awaited and long-promised
version 2.0 of AGT and represents the response to over five years of AGT
user's requests for improvements and additional capabilities and features.
The MASTER'S EDITION of ADVENTURE GAME TOOLKIT is designed to allow a game
designer/writer to create and play his/her own high-quality text adventure
games with optional graphic illustrations, sound effects and music. Once
created, these adventure games can be shared with and enjoyed by others --
even if they do not have a copy of the Adventure Game Toolkit themselves.
FEATURES OF MASTER'S EDITION OF THE ADVENTURE GAME TOOLKIT
The Master's Edition of AGT has a number of features that make it the most
comprehensive text adventure game creation product currently available. Some
of these key features are:
* Default "look-and-feel" of Infocom adventure games with similar
screen layout and standard vocabulary and routines.
* Large standard vocabulary with potential to define many more words
unique to a specific adventure. Typical games can have a vocabulary
of 1000 words or more.
* Sophisticated parser that can understand (1) complex input commands
including pronouns (IT, HIM, HER, THEM, MY and ITS), and (2) compound
commands separated by AND or THEN or punctuation symbols, and (3)
commands addressed to characters within the game. Here are a few
examples of commands AGT can handle with ease:
GET THE FLASH LIGHT AND THEN SWITCH IT ON
PUT ON THE CLOAK, THEN EXAMINE IT; READ ITS LABEL
PLACE THE GREEN ROCK AND THE SMALL PEBBLE BEHIND THE TREE
ENTER THE HOUSE; GET ALL; EXIT; SOUTH; SOUTH THEN DOWN
SULU, SET A COURSE FOR ALPHA 14
SCOTTY, BEAM DOWN A TRICORDER AND THE QWERTY MODULE
DROP THE FOOD, THE KEY AND THE BOTTLE THEN UNLOCK THE DOOR WITH
THE BRASS KEY AND THEN LEAVE
* Function and cursor keys predefined to input frequently used commands
and move directions. Function keys may also be redefined to input
frequently used commands like THROW AXE AT DWARF or GIVE MILK BOTTLE
TO BABY.
* An OOPS feature that allows you to edit/correct your input commands.
* SCRIPT and UNSCRIPT commands to echo game output to printer.
* Optional graphic illustrations using PCX formatted pictures for
display on CGA, EGA or VGA screens. The PCX format is the most
widely available of any picture format and is supported by most PAINT
and/or DRAW programs. Plus -- a great deal of PCX "clip-art" is
available.
* Optional music and sound effects that can be played in the
"background" during the game. These sound effects use the PC's
internal speaker and do not require any special "sound card."
* Optional user-definable "look-and-feel" interface including a
menu-driven player input option that displays feasible commands for
the player to pick from.
* Optional "pop-up" hints available when the <Alt> and <h> keys are
pressed at the same time.
* Optional fonts (EGA and VGA monitors only) that can be changed to
suit the needs of the game. The Master's Edition comes with over
30 sample fonts including Old English, Scrawl, Computereze. Plus, a
Font Editor is provided that allows you to create your own unique
fonts.
* Totally "backward" compatible with all previous versions of AGT.
WHAT THE REVIEWERS HAVE SAID ABOUT THE ADVENTURE GAME TOOLKIT
"Using the Adventure Game Toolkit, anyone with an ounce of
imagination can create a text adventure game ... similar in layout
and sophistication to those made by Infocom and other commercial
developers."
-- Donald B. Trivette in PC Magazine
"The Adventure Game Toolkit (AGT) acts as a compiler which allows
for creating remarkably complex and sophisticated games in a fairly
simple way .... AGT's parser reminds me of Infocom's."
-- Scorpia in Computer Gaming World
"If you have ever wondered what it is like to create your own
adventure games, but didn't have the programming knowledge to do it,
this product is for you .... The process is easy ... and you'll have
hours of fun doing it."
-- Resul DeMaria in Public Domain Software & Shareware
"The Adventure Game Toolkit from Softworks ... provides all the
tools you need to build your own text based adventure games .... The
Adventure Game Toolkit is an extremely powerful development
package."
-- Bob Napp in "Big Blue Disk"
The Adventure & Strategy Club (of England) selected the Adventure Game
Toolkit as the Best Utility of 1991/1992.
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE NORMAL EDITION AND THE MASTER'S EDITION OF AGT
The "Normal Edition" (i.e., the normal version) of AGT is very simple to use
and can be used by programming novices or even by non-programmer's to create
very professional text adventures similar to those from firms like Infocom.
Versions of the "Normal Edition" are available for IBM, Macintosh, Atari ST
and Amiga computers and games created on any of these computers can be
re-compiled and played on any of the other computers.
The Normal Edition is still supported and available from Softworks as
Shareware for only $20 (or $40 including a 223 page printed manual with lots
and lots of detailed examples). This price covers the cost of two ZIPped
disks with over 1.5 megabytes of goodies including summary documentation on
disk, and the AGT source code to over a dozen adventure games that may be
studied for ideas or simply played for fun.
The "Master's Edition" contains all the features and capabilities of the
"Normal Edition" plus a whole lot more. It is available only for IBM (or
compatible) computers. The Master's Edition is aimed at the more
sophisticated and experienced programmer/game designer. The Master's Edition
allows you to create games that are approximately twice as large as those
possible using the Normal Edition. Plus, your games can have optional graphic
illustrations, sound effects, music, "pop-up" hints, unique fonts (EGA or VGA
screens only), and a customizeable "look-and-feel" user interface including a
menu-driven player input option.
The Master's Edition is available from Softworks for only $50. This price
includes the cost of five ZIPped disks with over 3.5 megabytes of goodies
including complete documentation on disk, a bunch of game creation utilities,
several brand new sample games including the complete AGT source code to
HUMONGOUS CAVE (believed to be the largest text adventure game available on
any microcomputer). The Master's Edition package also includes the complete
AGT source code to the game you are currently playing with all of its related
font, music, sound effects and pictures files.
Which version is right for you? If you are a "power" gamer/programmer and
know that you can use (or need) the full power of the Master's Edition, then
by all means -- get the Master's Edition. If you have less experience with
programming or game design, then you should probably start with the Normal
Edition. If you select the Normal Edition, you can always upgrade later when
you need the full power of the Master's Edition -- for a special "registered
AGT user" upgrade price of only $35.
